Pink Eye Easter
So, how does one's dog contract pink eye? Thankfully I had some extra ointment from the time I brought her to the emergency vet. I've been putting in her eye, and boy does it work! My dog's eye finally looks normal again and is no longer oozing yellow goo. Anyways, today was a nice Sunday Funday. It started with a grocery trip to Walmart instead of cub. All was going well until we got to the checkout. I was with Jessie and we went to the self checkout. What a mistake that was! Nothing would scan for me, and it said that assistance was needed when in fact, it was not needed. I got so furious and just wanted to put my fist through the computer. Jessie pushed me away while laughing and said that she would take care of it. She had no trouble. What the hell? I was able to laugh about it afterwards while we had our blood pressure checked by the machine. Of course mine was a tad high due to the incident mentioned above. We decided to go through a drive thru for lunch and that's when my mood changed. Before we could even order, the person on the other end asked, "What's your favorite color?". I was so confused. I looked at Jessie and she repeated the question to me, then I turn to the speaker and said "Pink". We laughed, gave our order, and drove around to the window. When he opened the window before he even took the money, he asked another question. He asked, "If you could have any drink for free, what would you have?". We both said Dr. Pepper and moments later he handed us drinks that we didn't order. Total act of kindness! It made my day and turned my frown upside down! That's the kind of positivity I want to put back into the world. Make someone's day with one simple act. We need more people like him. He wasn't thinking about himself, his business, what he had to do later that day. He was in the moment and chose to make it a positive one for both of us. That's something I won't forget and plan on passing forward.
